Friend --

It's hard to believe, but only 55 percent of eligible voters cast a ballot in the 2016 election.

This year, amid the pandemic, Americans' growing support for mail-in voting is raising a major fear for Trump: that if more people vote, he will lose this election.

As states prepare to send mail-in ballots out to voters, people are rising up to defend our postal service against Trump's attacks. If you have not already, add your name today.

Thank you,

Subject: USPS Update: We can't let up now

Friend --

Since the pandemic made it clear that mail-in ballots would play a significant role in this election, President Trump has been trying to undermine our postal service. Together, we've fought back, and we've made progress: A few weeks ago, Postmaster General DeJoy announced he would suspend the policies that contributed to mail delays this summer.

But just this week, the Washington Post reported that patients are seeing significant delays in medicine deliveries by the USPS. This crisis remains, and it has a major impact on people across the country.

Donald Trump has shown little inclination to let up on his attacks on our postal service -- so now, a coalition of senators, members of Congress, and grassroots citizens are joining together to defend it.

Will you join us? Add your name to defend the Postal Service from President Trump's political attacks right now.

Every day, our postal service delivers medications, Social Security checks, veterans' benefits, and other essentials to people in cities, rural communities, and everywhere in between.

President Trump has spent months trying to undermine the USPS because he knows that, without interference, it's perfectly capable of delivering ballots, too.

We can't let up now. In these critical weeks before the election, we need to continue defending our postal service from Trump's attacks. I hope you'll add your name next to mine today.

Thank you,

Maria Cantwell
